Hidden Memories of The Gardens Between Brings Heartfelt Puzzle Adventure to VR on August 7, 2025
Set two decades after the original, Hidden Memories begins when Frendt stumbles upon Arina's old diary while moving. Opening it transports him-and players-back into the dreamlike Gardens Between. What follows is not just a replay of the original journey, but a deepened emotional experience enriched with Arina's personal reflections and diary entries.
This VR edition more than doubles the original content, adding approximately 40 all-new puzzles woven seamlessly throughout the narrative. The game infuses classic time-bending mechanics-manipulating the flow of time to guide Arina and Frendt across garden-like islands-with tactile, VR-specific interactions. Players can build friendship bracelets bead by bead, paint art, explore cherished toys, and physically engage with diary pages in a vivid, sensory journey through memory.
The storytelling is as poignant as ever, spotlighting shared childhood moments like art sessions, outdoor play, and heartfelt bond-forming. Through Arina's diary, players gain a fresh perspective on her adolescence and the friendship's evolution, while interactive elements breathe light and life into every memory.
"Hidden Memories of The Gardens Between pays homage to precious friendships we hold near and dear to our hearts," says Simon Joslin, co-founder of The Voxel Agents. The VR experience also supports both controller-based gameplay and hand-tracking on Quest devices, deepening the connection between player and narrative.
With its August 7 release, Hidden Memories invites both veterans of the original and newcomers to step into a tender, whimsical world redefined for VR-where time, memories, and friendship intertwine in beautiful harmony.

‘Selling Sunset' Season 9 has a newcomer — Sofia Vergara's sister
'Selling Sunset' just got more interesting. Sofia Vergara's little sister, Sandra Vergara, 36, has joined the Season 9 cast of 'Selling Sunset,' Variety reported on Monday, July 14. Sandra will be one of the fresh faces featured in the Oppenheim Group's Los Angeles-based real estate show when it returns to Netflix following a drama-filled Season 8. 10 Sofia Vergara's little sister, Sandra, has joined the 'Selling Sunset' Season 9 cast. sandravergara/Instagram The 53-year-old Emmy nominee's baby sister is set to star alongside returning cast members Chrishell Stause, Emma Hernan, Chelsea Lazkani, Bre Tiesi, Mary Bonnet, Amanza Smith, Alanna Gold, Romain Bonnet, Nicole Young, and CEO twin brothers Jason Oppenheim and Brett Oppenheim. Sandra's no stranger to the limelight, though. While Sofia's look-alike younger sibling has a career in selling luxury real estate, she started as an entertainment journalist and was a host on E! with RuPaul and worked as a correspondent for People. This also won't be her first time on the silver screen. The 'Modern Family' alum's sister has also been featured in episodes of 'Nip/Tuck,' 'CSI,' and 'The Bold and the Beautiful.' 10 The 36-year-old real estate agent has appeared in several TV shows. Alex Berliner/BEI/Shutterstock 10 'Beyond grateful and honored to be part of this wild, wonderful experience!' Sandra wrote of her 'Selling Sunset' debut. sandravergara/Instagram 10 Sofia's younger sibling is an expert in high-end real estate. sandravergara/Instagram New people, of course, come with fresh drama. 'Selling Sunset' Season 9 promises to follow the Oppenheim Group family as they battle to sell multimillion-dollar properties to the wealthy, with the synopsis given to Variety reading, 'where new faces will bring new feuds into the Los Angeles real estate market. As the pressure turns up in their personal and professional lives, some might not have what it takes to keep their seat at the brokerage. As the landscape in Los Angeles quickly changes, everyone will have to adapt to a new reality.' But Sandra isn't the only newcomer to the O Group, as cast members have also been added a little further down south. 10 All eyes will be on the younger Vergara sibling but she's not the only new addition. sandravergara/Instagram 10 The O Group's Orange County show, 'Selling the OC,' will also feature some fresh faces. sandravergara/Instagram 'Selling the OC' has gained three newbies to the Season 4 cast, including Kaylee Riccardi, Fiona Belle and Ashtyn Zerboni, per the outlet. They will join returning cast members Jason Oppenheim, Alex Hall, Polly Brindle, Tyler Stanaland, Gio Helou, Austin Victoria and Brandi Marshall. 'Selling the OC' will feature the company's Orange County agents 'who are ready to establish their office as the top brokerage within the Oppenheim Group. As the competition heats up for some high-stakes listings, some may get burned as devastating rumors divide the team.' 10 There will be 3 new cast members in the upcoming 'Selling the OC' season. ©Netflix/Courtesy Everett Collection Ricciardi is a veteran in the industry, with 13 years in selling luxury real estate under his belt. He got his start managing high-priced short-term rentals during Coachella, which progressed into event-based rentals with affluent clientele. Zerboni is a former model and actress-turned-real estate agent, who has worked with the Oppenheim Group in La Jolla and Orange County. Belle is considered the greenest addition to 'Selling the OC.' 10 However, both shows weren't without drama last season. ©Netflix/Courtesy Everett Collection At 23, the Orange County native just joined the company in 2024. She has 'proud Italian roots' and is 'a first-generation college graduate.' Both shows haven't been short on drama, with Bre Tiesi at the center of most conflicts on 'Selling Sunset' last season. The reality star — who was married to ex-NFL star Johnny Manziel from 2018 to 2021 and shares son, Legendary, 3, with Nick Cannon — was tasked with the dilemma of telling her castmate Chelsea Lazkani that her husband was 'making out' with another woman and even helped her former athlete ex find a home. 10 Sofia's sister has also been a correspondent and host of E! sandravergara/Instagram 10 The Colombian beauty's famous sister has yet to comment on her reality debut. sandravergara/Instagram During Manziel's cameo, he recalled the emotional toll his split from Tiesi took on him. He admitted to begging, crying and pleading with her to reconsider their divorce following rumors he had cheated during their relationship. Tiesi's co-star Mary Bonnet also aired out dirty laundry, but took a shot at producers when she accused them of orchestrating her pregnancy reveal scene. While Sandra shared a post about her 'Selling Sunset' debut saying she was 'beyond grateful' for the 'wild' experience, her famous older sister has yet to comment on her reality TV sibling. The Post reached out to Sofia's rep for comment. A release date for both 'Selling Sunset' and 'Selling the OC' will be announced at a later date.

Beloved '70 Sitcom Star, 75, Looks Dapper in Rare Sighting With His Third Wife
Beloved '70s sitcom star, Anson Williams, was photographed alongside his third wife, Sharon MaHarry, in early July 2025. The Daily Mail reported that the couple, who wed in 2023, spent their summer day in Ojai, California, where they reside. According to the publication, Williams and MaHarry got pedicures at a nail salon. Williams also went on a solo outing to the grocery store. For the casual outing at the nail salon, Williams wore a tan button-down shirt, jeans, and flip-flops. His wife sported a white shirt tucked into black trousers. She accessorized her look with black shoes, black-rimmed glasses, and a matching purse. While on his grocery run, Williams wore a henley T-shirt and a pair of cargo shorts. As fans are aware, Williams famously portrayed Potsie Weber in the beloved sitcom, Happy Days, which ran from 1974 to 1984. During a November 2024 interview with Center Stage Magazine at the 2024 Gallatin Comic Con, Williams spoke about starring in the series. According to Williams, he and his castmates didn't expect Happy Days to become a classic. "We had no idea that it would be iconic," said the 75-year-old actor. In addition, he said he has enjoyed interacting with Happy Days fans at conventions throughout the years. "We love seeing our fans. We love spending time. We're very proud of Happy Days. And all the talent that went into it. What's wonderful about coming to Comic Cons, is seeing how people are affected by the show in a very positive way. They come happy and it makes you feel good," said Williams during the interview. The actor also said he appreciates that he is able to spend time with his Happy Days co-stars at the fan events. "What's really great is that we get to be together again. We've been friends for 50 years," said Williams. Copyright 2025 The Arena Group, Inc. All Rights Reserved
